 No, so it seems.
 To be fair a good many Christains opppse this hate game.

 Others have already struck at me for goring ther sacred cow.

 JO> But I demur. We do NOT celebrate any such thing.

I get depressed on the holidays as when a kid family was around.
Putting it mildly they were dysfunctional. 

I do have lots to be grateful this year going into Christams however.

 JO> We enjoy, for the first few times we hear them, Christmas songs...

 So do I, then it's done to death.

 JO> An amazing experience.
 JO> Merry Christmas!

 JO> It's a Jingle out there!

Have a happy holidays and the very best to you and yours.
